Lala’s Story
by Karina

Meus avós nasceram na Armênia. Eles imigraram para o Brasil porque estavam fugindo da guerra com os turcos. A viagem foi de navio e demorou muito tempo.
Eles vieram para a América e não sabiam muito bem onde iam chegar, achavam que America era um único país e não sabiam que tinha América do Norte, Central e do Sul.
Uma coisa muita engraçada que descobri foi que eles achavam que cresciam dólares nas árvores da América!


My grandparents were born in Armenia. They immigrated to Brazil because they were running away from the war with the Turkish people. They came by ship and the trip took a long time.
They came to America, but they were not sure where they would get to, because they thought America was a single country. They didn’t know there were North America, Central and South America.
I’ve also found out something very funny.They thought the trees in America grew dollars!
